Some Lights (Welcome the Dark)

Send us Fan Mail After a few nights of heavy frost, the chill has finally settled into the canal. Fortunately, it is perfect weather to gather beside the warm stove with friends aboard the NB Erica. In tonight's episode, we celebrate the specialness of this season, exploring the things that truly sustain us and remember that  some fires offer more than heat and some lights offer more than light. We also share the view from the window of Ao S.   Journal entry:7th November, Saturday“Walking through cloud When the sky meets the water. Am I earthbound or skyborne?I am the robin's songThe jackdaw's jarrThe sound of dew droppingInto still water;Threads stitched acrossThe boundaries,Holding the universe together.”Episode Information:In this episode I read two short extracts from John Moriarty’s Nostos: An autobiography published in 2001 by Lilliput Press. Jason and Karen Politte’s YouTube vlog is Just Two People.Tonight’s ‘Night View (Through your Window)’ is provided by Ao S. If you want to submit your own ‘night view’ you can use any of the contact points listed at the bottom of this page. With special thanks to our lock-wheelersfor supporting this podcast.

Send us Fan MailTonight, we walk through deep time. Ours is a generation who are the witnesses to the Great Unravelling, but we are also part of the Great Remembering. With handfuls of seeds and ancient soil, we walk out of our books, our learning, and our language, to pick up something once lost. Journal entry:16th October, Friday“Robin song and yellowing leaves Float down upon the silent canal. A moorhen swims into the mist. Jackdaws play around the One Oak, Their voices stabbing the morning light.A handful of rooks join them. They settle and watch the pasture below, And me and Maggie, standing beside still waters Under a rainbow of robin song.”Episode Information:In this episode I read a short extract from John Moriarty’s What the Curlew Said published by Lilliput Press. I also mention the vlog: Life Aboard Petra.This episode’s ‘Night View: Through your window’ is provided by good friend of the podcast and lock-wheeler ‘Mind Shambles’.With special thanks to our lock-wheelersfor supporting this podcast.

Send us Fan MailWhile work pressures have made tonight’s episode a little shorter than usual, the pause feels serendipitous. This evening, we embrace the quiet, celebrating the small, sacred pockets of stillness that naturally invite us in and away from an increasingly tumultuous and noisy world. It is a gentle reminder that even a brief moment of reflection can anchor us, offering the support and connection we all need to navigate the chaos.As we slow our pace, we are also invited to look through the window of lock-wheeler and fellow boater Ana McKellar, sharing in her unique perspective and finding comfort in the shared rhythms of a day on the water.Step inside, leave the noise behind, and share this gentle space with us.Journal entry:1st October, Thursday“The thick darkness Of a mole-blind morning. Feet slip on gravel and tiredness. Racing clouds lower themselves To the earth in rain. No moon or stars, Just waterlogged sky And the wind among the alders.But that is alright, For I have Stars enough And that wind-song among the alders.”Episode Information:This episode’s ‘Night View: Through your window’ is provided by fellow boater and lock-wheeler of this podcast Ana McKellar.With special thanks to our lock-wheelersfor supporting this podcast.

We also join Jeff Van Booven for a special night-view from his window in the sultry darkness of a summer midnight in Missouri.      Journal entry:18th September, Friday“Standing beside the convocation of oaks First geese fly over and then the raven pair. On days like this, even these friendly fields Remember that they cannot be tamed.”Episode Information:In this episode, I read haiku from Chora and Taigu.

Send us Fan MailIt’s a beautiful night, but there is an autumnal damp chill in the air. So, snuggle up with us aboard the Erica as we enter the mysterious, but perhaps not so different, world of geese, and we find out what happened when nine of them flew in on one late summer’s afternoon. In celebration of the life of Wendell Berry, we read his poem 'Wild Geese.'  Journal entry:3rd September, Thursday“Awake to a jewelled morning Fresh washed in last night’s rain. There are puddles along the towpath And glass-like rosehips glisten In smoky hedges of old man’s beard.Last night I listened to rain Drumming on the cabin roof And its hiss upon the stirred water Of the canal.”Episode Information:In this I read Wendell Berry’s poem ‘Wild Geese’ in commemoration of his life and work. Night Views: Through your window will resume in the next episode.You can find more information about Canada geese, including their calls, on the British Ornithological Trust’s site, here: BTO – Canada Geese.    With special thanks to our lock-wheelersfor supporting this podcast.
